Here are theScore's quarterback value rankings for Week 11 (Thursday night game excluded):
Value Rankings
QB | RB | WR | TE
Top Options
| NAME | OPPONENT | VALUE |
|---|---|---|
| Derek Carr (OAK) | at DET | 10 |
| Russell Wilson (SEA) | vs. SF | 9 |
| Tom Brady (NE) | vs. BUF | 9 |
| Cam Newton (CAR) | vs. WAS | 8 |
| Carson Palmer (ARI) | vs. CIN | 8 |
| Philip Rivers (SD) | vs. KC | 8 |
Carr should have a field day against a Lions defense allowing opposing QBs to complete 70 percent of their passes. Wilson and Brady both have plum home matchups, while Newton should continue returning solid value against the Redskins. Palmer has been sensational at home. Rivers gets a Chiefs pass defense that has improved, but is still vulnerable.
Best of the Rest
| NAME | OPPONENT | VALUE |
|---|---|---|
| Matt Ryan (ATL) | vs. IND | 7 |
| Tony Romo (DAL) | at MIA | 7 |
| Matthew Stafford (DET) | vs. OAK | 6 |
| Jameis Winston (TB) | at PHI | 6 |
| Ryan Fitzpatrick (NYJ) | at HOU | 6 |
| Ryan Tannehill (MIA) | vs. DAL | 6 |
| Tyrod Taylor (BUF) | at NE | 6 |
| Andy Dalton (CIN) | at ARI | 6 |
| Aaron Rodgers (GB) | at MIN | 6 |
| Alex Smith (KC) | at SD | 5 |
| Mark Sanchez (PHI) | vs. TB | 5 |
DFS players can only hope the week off has helped Atlanta sort out its passing attack; this is the kind of matchup Ryan should exploit. Romo makes his triumphant return in a plus matchup against the visiting Dolphins. Taylor could wind up on the wrong end of a blowout, but is a good bet to return value regardless. Sanchez is a decent mid-range play against Tampa Bay.
Nothing to See Here
| NAME | OPPONENT | VALUE |
|---|---|---|
| Brock Osweiler (DEN) | at CHI | 4 |
| Teddy Bridgewater (MIN) | vs. GB | 4 |
| Matt Hasselbeck (IND) | at ATL | 4 |
| Joe Flacco (BAL) | vs. STL | 3 |
| Kirk Cousins (WAS) | at CAR | 3 |
| T.J. Yates (HOU) | vs. NYJ | 3 |
| Jay Cutler (CHI) | vs. DEN | 3 |
| Case Keenum (STL) | at BAL | 2 |
| Blaine Gabbert (SF) | at SEA | 1 |
Osweiler's matchup is the only thing keeping him from sinking to the bottom. Cousins will have an extremely difficult time repeating his Week 10 success as he draws a date with a stout Carolina pass defense. Cutler could struggle against a motivated Broncos unit. Keenum is a fade in a tough road tilt. Gabbert is in serious trouble against the host Seahawks.
